Welcome!! My name is Rachael + I'm here to share my journey to healing from years of severe chronic illness. At my worst, I was bed bound and now I'm making progress towards being well again! I can't be more thankful.
These things have been life-changing for me: the carnivore diet, prolotherapy treatments, and DNRS training (neuroplasticity exercises).
Prior to becoming sick in 2016, I was an avid rock climber and athlete. I know I will climb again one day! For those that are curious, these are some of the conditions I have been diagnosed with (and am now healing from): EDS, chiari malformation, intracranial hypertension, craniocervical instability, POTS, TMJD, chronic lyme disease, hip dysplasia and celiac.
Never give up hope for healing, my friends!

Man, this is so disappointing. This is just an ad for some bogus program that costs $100 a month...
Another symptom? Your fingers are turning reddish purple in the video. At least it looks that way.
Started LDN yesterday for hashimoto 🩷 I’m hoping this his game changer. Also important to note I’m 33 weeks pregnant. Hashimoto can cause prolonged and stalled labor, along with hemorrhaging. LDN is supposed to help those things as well. But I have all the symptoms you listed and then some. This will be my third (and last) baby. I had a daughter in 2022 (VBAC) And a son in 2016 (cesarean) hemorrhaged with both and needed five blood transfusions. With my daughter in 2022, I labored for about 40 hours before her arrival! WOW! Who would’ve known it was caused by my hashimoto. This time I have had a lot more issues and that’s why I was diagnosed while pregnant… because my issues were intense.
Its so hard. I feel like giving up. Thanks for the encouragement
I have spinal cord and brainstem compression, may have no choice with this surgery. I'm nearly non-functional trying to prevent more brainstem damage and do not have the privilege of sitting or lying down.
I'm not sure if I will get mine open
So painful to exercise
Mine I think is more muscle fibrosis. I live in north Carolina
Well I haven't opened mine for 2years😢 and then found out I had hpv tongue cancer. Then went through chemo and radiation. But I had covid then noticed after my jaw limited. Now going through therapy for my severe trismus.
Thx for this vid! I also have EDS.
For POTS, people need to screen first all the others possible causes like Hyperthyroidism...low Potassium and Magnesium..adrenal gland problems...pituitary diseases..multiple sclerosis,diabetes and so on. If you get all this test and no abnormality found,so yes you have let s say primary pots. If not...let s try to fix it first and see how it works.
I needed to hear this today, thank you 🤍
thanks for the sharing Rachel. i'm on the medication, after got DSA on June, i was diagnosed with IIH and sigmoid sinus diverticulum after 1 year figuring it out starting from ENT from one hospital to other hospitals. now been 2 months with topiramate with the right neuro doctor
I totally relate i am going through this now.. I have constant nausea uncomfortable headaches migranes shortness of breath . Yes it feels like your dying.. I have SAI diagnoised so on prednisone but I am really trying not to take it much suppose to take 5mg but I am only taking 2mg in morning .. I have ME/CFS fibromyalgia EBV and so many GI issues and RA cervical instability and from shingles nerve pain.. . I am so happy that God is with you .. he is my rock through all this. I really have no support system except him the medical system here in NM has been horrible with no help and gaslighting is bad .. wish you well. I am 47 way older than you and have had this for 7 years .. I always have hope to turn a corner some days I do and some days I just want relief .. 🫂🙏
Can you do for monophobia or agoraphobia
How much does it cost?
Amen. Thank you for this video.
You’re an inspiration Rachael. Thanks for spreading hope to all who are suffering. Wishing you nothing but good health and happiness 😊
What are the symptoms you faced
Which kind of exercise you do to overcome
love this so much :)
Are there specific people or therapies you have heard of that can address severe MALS compression and symptoms without surgery? I’m curious. Thanks
Witnessing your journey has been incredible!
Rachel’s experience is definitely very real. She has been through an incredible amount, including having C0, C1, and C2 stabilization, along with some difficult and lasting complications from those two operations. Her story is heartfelt, honest, and truly encouraging, showcasing the amazing gains she’s made in healing. She openly shares the complications she faced from the surgery, her feelings that it wasn’t the right choice for her, and what has since helped bring back her life and function. CCI and AAI are complicated conditions, and there is immense value in watching her story. As someone who also has CCI and AAI and underwent surgical treatment for a C1-C2 dislocation, I can attest to the importance of hearing her story and those of others in our community. It greatly helped me in making decisions as I faced my own acute health condition. Rachel’s story is an important one that can help others dealing with complex chronic health issues. We are all different, and the more we learn about these conditions and treatments, the better. In my case, surgery helped me a lot, but it’s crucial to hear the wide range of experiences within the CCI community. This may help others find alternatives to surgery and understand the lifelong risks involved. #WeNeedToTalkAboutCCI
Thank you Rachael. Seeing stories such as your´s has been amazingly uplifting while going through it. I´m currently documenting my own way back to health as well. For now it´s the low-effort and quality my body allows, but hopefully it will be watchable enough to help someone have faith. Wish me luck.
she should SHOW the diagnoses , i have this and no ways is treatable with DNRS, wich i also did for years, so please, SHOW YOUR DIAGNOSES
She mentions her diagnoses throughout her account and also on Insta. Her situation is real and she is not trying to sell any program.
She is not selling a program, she‘s eating the proper human diet. That was the gamechanger for her. The program helped im addition.
Idek of this is real or she's just trying to sell some program
if she doesnt show any diagnose , is a scam. I knew so many people like here and also the ones who dont lie and show the diagnoses and ..well, we are chronic ill and this doesnt get better with time.
She has all of her diagnoses listed right there in the home page of her channel description.... idk if shes trying to sell a program, but even if she was, that doesn't at all mean her healing story is fake. Many of us DO heal, and it starts with the belief that we CAN. Attacking someones character and calling them a scammer when they share their healing story with others is just as bad as attacking someone who is ill when they share their story, saying that they are faking their illness. She is no more faking her healing than anyone else with chronic illness is faking their illness. What a better world it would be if we all stuck together and supported one another, and if we all realized we can heal. Sending you both so much love and healing. ❤
@@Nottygdrasilyou apparently haven't followed her story or you would know her diagnosis and ALL the treatments she did, not just DNRS and this is not fake. She did get better and it's so inspiring. One of the things she had was cervical instability and I am getting treated at Caring Medical as she did and I'm getting better too. Healing IS POSSIBLE 💪💙🙏
@@healwithlaurennicole what people do heal ? Nobody with real diseases like ALS, ehlers danlos, MCAS , to put an example. Your message gives me creepy vibes. As a person who is been very sick for years and HELPING others, wasting money in lots of programms and treatments who resulted to be SCAMS, its apropiate to tell people here, to be careful and do their research before they believe what a YT says.
Sjes not selling a program and shes actually chronically ill. I have followed her for years. Dnrs is neural reprogramming. Science has figured out that we can brainwash ourselves and our cells and brain and body to start doing what its supposed to do, based on repetitive behaviors and belief alone. Its proven to work for anything and all things depending in of you actually want it. Shes not selling anything. Ive done dnrs and am currently in the process of healing from pots, mcas, and Dysautonomia.
No se lo q dice.
Quel est votre maladie ?
The puppets and parts explanation may look silly but parts work or IFS as it is is known is a very powerful and effective type of therapy.
For sure! Parts work is very impactful
Brain retraining claire weeks method
Theres a lady gege on dan pain free you with eds cured with mind body work gives hope
I did it for two years and am in remission from Lyme. I partnered it with intense trauma /PTSD therapy to address the core issue of why I was sick and dnrs was just a supplement to the trauma support
I was diagnosed last week with IIH which scared the hell out of me, I was given medication and I’m scheduled to get a spinal this week. I hope everything works fine
I have been having a hard time eating meat lately unfortunately because I’m having a mental block thinking it’s “gross” I’m usually a big meat eater but go through phases like this. Thank you so much for this video you’re so relatable. I’m still trying to find a dr who believes in chronic Lyme. It’s been many years of suffering. ❤strength and healing wishes for you!
Congratulations on regaining your health! This gives me a lot of hope. I have long Covid since July 2020, chronic Lyme, mold mycotoxins and several chemical toxicities before that. I was finding solutions and detoxing but Covid made my situation so much worse. I just started LDN .5 mg about a week ago and it is definitely messing with my sleep. Making it even harder for me to fall asleep. I’ve been going to bed at 7 am, which is very frustrating. I think I’m going to try taking it in the daytime. I hate the idea of being on any drug, long term and I totally agree with your perspective. I was hesitant to even try it but I’m really desperate to help my immune system. I have been getting flus all summer long and I can’t take it anymore. (I’m unvaxxed in case anyone is wondering). I just want to have energy and live a normal life like everyone else.
how far in ?
Disagree for my illness. It is physiologically caused, so we are talking biology on a cellular level - me watching other people with *different genetics, different microbiomes, different viral loads, with different access to treatments, with different symptoms even within the same illness label* WILL NOT HELP ME "CONTAGIOUSLY HEAL." We live in different, independent bodies, with different reactions to even the same treatments. This is misinformation.
My pain isnt my neck nowadays it was its shoulder armpits area
Rechal elizabeth good patients m. R. I. Ripot s video help
Your m. R. I. Ripot video help me
Everything okay now?
yah fight or flight turns off healing for me
Is Chiari another word for intracranial pressure?
are you able to make a video about what your tethered cord symptoms were and how they improved? I am so scared to get the surgery with what everyone says and I am really looking into DNRS or Primal Trust but struggle to understand how it can help with tethered cord if the cord is stuck to your spinal cord making it hard for you to walk. so inspired by you and so intrigued on natural things. Already doing carnivore, grounding, sunlight, about to start cold plunging, really trying to do everything possible for my body before I make a big decision with surgery.

What are the best ways to help your body feel safe ?
So awesome 🎉❤❤❤ I love your positivity and I think of you and how far you've come if I'm having a bad day and start to get depressed again. I also try to be thankful for all the things I can do now that I couldn't before instead of focusing on what I still can't do yet. Thank you so much for sharing your journey I also decided to go to Caring Medical bc of you and a few other ppl and getting my neck treated there is helping me so much ❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏
Can I ask you a question? I saw you doing a video with that Dr from primal trust and I’ve been looking into it. Do you feel that this is a program that would be compatible with being a Christian?
I‘m so happy for you!! Thank you for sharing your story, it’s giving hope.
